I'm in the middle of doing just this thing for a headless backend. But, I'm doing it in linux since a lot of the scripts/utilities already exist to let this happen. Not really sure what sort of interest there is for the *nix folk but i'd be happy to share if/when I get it done.

Yes, please post your solution for video with gps overlay for linux.

Thanks for the link.
Im following that one closely. The guys already got GPS overlay working so that application will pretty soon become a must have for windows based carPCs.
My goal is to upgrade to a linux based (LinuxICE) carPC. One of the things I need is to have video with GPS overlay. I dont think that application will work under wine and I really have no interest on trying MONO.
I know everything needed is out there for linux, just need to figure out how to best combine the different tools to get the end result.
